Both pg_dump and pg_restore are with 12.2, on an already converted 12.2 DB.
So I'm 12.2 all the way on my test system by this point. :)

Not quite...

nms=# \d subscribers
                       Table "public.subscribers"
...
Check constraints:
    "chk_su_data_ip" CHECK (check_data_ip(profile_fk, unit_id, data_ip))


The first line of the check_data_ip() function is the offender:

SELECT srvc_data INTO data
FROM su_profiles
WHERE su_profile_pk = p_profile_fk;

Hmm, why is this a problem now and not before?

(Probably the usual reason of code "tightening" as we go forward, or so I'd guess.)

I don't see any option that mentions "CHECK" in the pg_restore doc in regards to
possibly turning it off...more research...

And oh, this hurts. :( From the docs on CHECK constraints:

PostgreSQL does not support CHECK constraints that reference table data other
than the new or updated row being checked. While a CHECK constraint that
violates this rule may appear to work in simple tests, it cannot guarantee
that the database will not reach a state in which the constraint condition
is false (due to subsequent changes of the other row(s) involved). This
would cause a database dump and reload to fail. ...

It goes on to say a trigger is the right way to do this. So yeah, a "tightening
of the code" seems to be hitting me because of bad code from the past.

Problem identified and I'll solve it tomorrow.

Thank you so much Adrian for helping me to figure this out!

Kevin
